Saturday With Haikus

Hiding between the trees
our bodies covered by leaves
skin cooled from the breeze

(Not) Available

Our paths intertwined by
loneliness.
Suspicious secretive smiles
Enigmatic exchanges.
Holding hands,
Erotic embraces,
But frozen feelings.

Our impenetrable walls
make conversation
Impossible.
Almost hopeless,
pointless.

We recognize the game,
but play it anyway.

Keeping a safe separation
Choosing words carefully,
Calculating each conversation.

Vulnerability bolted away
Intimidated by fears
Jaded because of the past.

Manipulated from emptiness
Misguided by desires
Beguiled by lust.

Unavailable hearts,
Available bodies.
